Guy Foucher: We'll have children.
Geneviève Emery: I'll name our daughter Francoise.
Guy Foucher: And if it is a boy?
Geneviève Emery: It will be a girl. We've always had girls in the family.
Guy Foucher: One o'clock.
Geneviève Emery: If Mother's not asleep, what a scene there will be.

Madame Emery: I saw the cutest little rompers at the department store.
Geneviève Emery: Admit that you're pleased.
Madame Emery: I'd be more pleased if this baby had a father, and you had a husband.
Geneviève Emery: Guy will come back.
Madame Emery: Guy or someone else.
Geneviève Emery: Absence is a funny thing. I feel like Guy left years ago. I look at this photo, and I forget what he really looks like. When I think of him, it's this photo that I see.

Madame Emery: Mr. Cassard came this evening. He was sorry he missed you. I'm sure he could give you some advice.
Geneviève Emery: I can do without his advice.
Madame Emery: You're wrong. For me, he is the kind of man...
Geneviève Emery: Don't bother me with his kind.
Madame Emery: You look terrible.
Geneviève Emery: Leave me alone, Mother.

Madame Emery: There's no reason for sulking. You're tired, but you're not dying.
Geneviève Emery: It's not my weariness that saddens me. It's his silence. Guy left just two months ago. He only wrote me once.
Madame Emery: Don't start that again.
Geneviève Emery: If I knew where he was, I could write to him. I'm sure they've sent him someplace dangerous where he's risking his life.
